Thanks La....'dita for the PING!
Wow! What a terrific gal. Her husband is in Army also and I understood her to say that he is re-enlisting also. I heard her speak on one of the media shows and I had to make ye ole Kleenex run. They are both Heroes in my books....may God Bless them greatly for all they have done and are going to do. May God keep them both in the palm of His Mighty and Protective Hand!

But on the positive side of it, I was doing something that helped her go through these events in a country that is free. Amen to that. And we are grateful for the sacrifices of you and your family as you protect(ed) our nation.

"I hope to represent every soldier in the Army Reserve — and my daughter — in a positive way. If you put your feet in Iraq or Afghanistan, your service is just as meaningful and just as appreciated," Wilson said.
Yes.
Thank you for your service, Sfc. Wilson.
